Legislature, and his record in that body was Q

General under Harrison, and he succeeded him
in the command Of the Northwestern army
He proved to be an able military leader, and
defeated the British with great loss to them at
the battle OF Malcom's Mills. When the war
ended General Macarthur retired TO his Chilli
cothe estate, but was immediately made Com
missioner to the Indians at Detroit Fort Meigs
and st. Mary's by appointment Of the Presi-
dent, and was engaged In the service for three
years.
In 1872 General Macarthur was again elected
to Congress- and he served one term, declining
o reelection in order that he might devote him
self to private afflairs as he had large business
interests that demanded his attention. Dun
can Macarthur accumulated a great deal Of
property and was engaged in the iron business
milling and real estate.
In 1880 he was elected Governor Of Ohio. His
administration was quiet one, and when his
term Of ofice expired he retired permanently
from public life and lived at his beautiful home,
Fruit Hill, till he died in 1910.
Fruit HILL" the home Of Duncan Macarthur,
became in later years the residence Of his dear
est foe, William Allen, who married daughter
OF the original proprietor Of the pleasant man.
